This classic liberal does not even know what a conservative is. I keep hearing people throw the word around but it really means nothing in my opinion.
Are you speaking of your slightly less left brothers, the Republicans?
Rave this if you think fear-mongering SH Cons should just get a freaking grip...

We know the spoiled kids cry and whine when they don't get their way. They also blame others for their problems...
Tell us, for those of you that have dealt with spoiled brats, how do you get them to learn the lesson and move on?
Now again... this discussion thread isn't about Obama.... isn't about Libs...
It's about you getting a freaking grip and start to come back to unite this nation with those you oppose...
It's not about getting your way... because Americans are sick of you trying to define everything for everyone...
The Dems seem to get this... Independents do to...
So... Why you crying?

Whichever party is in power rants and raves because its majority in Congress is never quite big enough to just run roughshod over the "others." They squabble over cosmetic differences, then wind up with some sort of "compromise". From a freedom lover's perspective, those compromise always involve growing government power and diminishing individual freedom.
Meanwhile, the President keeps advancing the same agenda (and, usually, policies) as his predecessor and stealing more and more power for himself.
All the petty squabbling over which rights we should happily give up provides entertainment for the masses and keeps most of us from being willing to admit that the vast majority of those rights have already been stolen.
I'm not sure it's possible, at this point, to "unite this nation." Throughout our history, it's been one series of uncomfortable compromises after another. The fundamental disagreement is over whether this should be a free country or a country full of slaves. Or what that even means.
If we can't agree on that much (or even that that's really the basic issue), how can we possibly get it turned around enough to actually work out the real differences?
Excellent observation...
BTW... Happy New Years... it's been awhile.
As much as I like to see the nation united, it's not going to be through Washington.
Happy New Year to you, too. Let's hope this one will be better than the last, for everyone.
Nuff Said!
Thanks.
I couldn't agree more.
Guess what, I'm finding many more that think the same. Everyday...
And let's throw in the media as well... If it's wasn't for ratings, they would just report story-lines and facts. Seem I have to filter out the opinions nowadays.
Thanks... BTW.. HAPPY NEW YEARS..
We'll all be required to get health care. Our money keeps losing value. It looks like Iraqi refugees are still dying. Who knows whether the military will ever leave Afganistan? (They're still in Germany, after all).
Drones are steadily moving from overseas to "protect" us. While drugs, gangs, and colonists invade us through our pretty-much non-existent southern border (and police forces keep growing more and more militaristic to protect us from those evil drugs that the cons' War makes so lucrative). I'll ignore the people who just want a chance to earn an honest living but can't afford permits.
The rich keep getting richer, and the middle class keeps shrinking (I can't say the poor keep getting poorer, because the truly poor are pretty much already at rock-bottom and almost no one cares about them anyway...although the not-quite-so-poor are the most badly hurt by inflation).
Let's see. Corporations keep taking stupid gambles, committing fraud, and either getting bailed out or disappearing after losing their taxpayer-backed loans.
The economy keeps getting worse. We keep listening to the same idiots who promised us there wasn't any trouble in the first place. We keep making deficit "cuts" that means it's projected to grow slower than the last peop...

It seems to me that the extremists are either a) the people who believe the State is the answer to all our problems and b) the people who just want the State to leave everybody alone. Unfortunately for freedom's sake, I'm not sure there's anyone even vaguely involved in the State who qualifies as a "type b" (using this style of labeling. Which, as Contard has pointed out, is really a vast over-simplification and shows sloppy thinking).
IMO, the problem is that one flavor of extremists seems to have been running everything since (at least) the 50's.
I'm starting to see there is a difference... Conservatives around the world are shameful of this lot.
You think they would be use to losing for the last four years. lol
Thanks CCR... you always know how to make me smile.
:)
This type.
I'm holding back... just trying to get along Larry... but I can take away the privilege of you visiting any more of my Discussion threads?
It's your choice...
BTW... it's not about debate... It's about discussion... a conversation... something you're failed at all your life.
But go right ahead... run in circles... chasing that tail... you'll always be clueless...
:)
I left you unblocked... to see if you might get the hint to come out of combat mode. But people like you only see the world through partisan eyes...
And I'm finding your type more irrelevant every day I awaken.
So Larry... wallow in your fear... we understand.. you can't get by without it. Many of us have moved on.
Does that mean you have a support group as well? I wonder... Why you or your buddy don't have the intelligence to create Discussion threads that draw in others with moderate interest?
Nope... you have to come troll in other discussions with your fear... with your labeling... with your partisan mindset...
I've never label myself... because I don't believe in labels... but it's your fear of others that don't agree with you, that you can't get beyond fitting them in some box...
Good luck to you Larry...
Of course, it's always wiser to obey orders from anyone with a gun and what amounts to a license to kill. But I think America needs a little more civil disobedience.
That's just a side-note, really. I don't much care about squabbles between a union thug and one of his State-sponsored counterparts.
We've seen whining on the left for 4+ years and Contard decides to call conservatives masters of passing blame when his elected savior does nothing but blame anybody and everybody else for his own failures.
No, you can't compare the masses here in SH world Larry and have anyone but those circle jerk - reach around buddies of yours, running in packs trying to chase down anyone who might have even the slightest independence that doesn't lean conservative.
I don't even have to bring Obama up without those like you first comments in new discussions making it all about Obama and the left.
I did this on purpose... One to challenge any of you to prove I'm Liberal, which none of you as of today have ever been able to prove, and second, to show others your become what you hate most... Liberals... As in the Liberals of 2004 that hated Bush so much they marched Bush right back into office... Just like you guys just did with Obama...
But no... your too proud to admit you've failed... and reduced yourself to the Liberals of 2004...
Clueless still Larry.... really, it's time to get over it, or set yourselves up for more failure in 2014... You keep forgetting, when this all started I supported John Huntsman... and I voted mainly for Libertarians in this last election... but you wanted everyone to put your very own messiah in power...
You know... Mittsiah....
And I can't speak against the contarded and NOT be Liberal Larry.
I still see you haven't presented one shred of proof that I'm Liberal....
Just because I don't like the contarded, doesn't make me Liberal... so busted Larry.... again you had your chance but couldn't quite come up with anything that proves I'm Liberal.
What can I possibly find that's even worse?
(That's rhetorical...please don't offer up alternatives)
Merely an observation that (thinking back) was off-topic.
